“Who can ever forget the first time they met Karl? It’s always an unforgettable event, even a life-changing one.'
. He shoots all of Chanel’s campaigns, as well as superb editorials for the world’s most sought-after magazines, and he’s had huge exhibitions of his work all around the world: the Maison Européenne de la Photographie in Paris, the Chiostro del Bramante in Rome and, just ending this month, the Daelim Contemporary Art Museum of Seoul.
“Karl makes me feel like anything is possible,” says Florence . “A conversation about the sea can turn into an underwater paradise inside the Grande Palais. He makes me want to know more stuff, all kinds of stuff from French 17th century love poems, to neoclassical artists, just so one day I might be able to keep up with him conversationally… He’s had a massive impact on how I am viewed by the fashion world, and his friendship and support has been invaluable.
To accompany our cover shoot, i-D Fashion Director Charlotte Stockdale sat down with Karl for a chat about all sorts of things, starting with his adorable white Burmese kitten Choupette. Fashion’s coolest cat first appeared in a photo at the start of 2012, sat under a bouquet of pink, purple and white roses, alongside a bottle of Chanel Allure, of course. Staring intently into Lagerfeld’s almost-full bathtub .
I don’t know that Choupette has changed my life exactly, but suddenly I have someone I have to take care of and I am not used to taking care of anything except myself. So even a cat is a big change for me!On my bed. She always sleeps on my bed, on a beautiful white cashmere blanket. But she never goes on my bed when I am not in the bed. I can show you photos [gets out his iPhone].Yes, she is very beautiful [shows another photo].
